Case Study of the Multi-Purpose Electric Cart 'MITRA': Golf Ball Collection Machine
A case where Dainichi Koki Co., Ltd. utilized an electric cart for a remote-controlled golf ball collector! Improving work efficiency by collecting balls during operations.
Dainichi Koki Co., Ltd. manufactures and sells golf ball collectors that significantly reduce the labor involved in ball collection tasks. Typically, at driving ranges, balls are manually collected after closing and before opening. During operating hours, it is difficult for people to collect balls due to the balls flying around, leading to the challenge of "how to improve work efficiency by conducting ball collection during operating hours." To address this, we utilized Suzuki's multifunctional electric cart 'MITRA' (formerly known as the Electric Mobility Base Unit), which is equipped with ball protection processing, to tow the ball collector via remote control. This allows for safe and efficient ball collection even during operating hours. Additionally, it can collect balls even in the presence of minor puddles. **Features of Suzuki's multifunctional electric cart 'MITRA':** - Capable of traveling at 6 km/h - Independent motors for the left and right rear wheels - Suspension in the front, back, and sides - Power steering for front wheel steering ▼ Demo consultations available!
